Registration, Housing, Meals
For CIAP 2019 the registration fee is $50. Fill out the registration form at the “registration” tab and book a room at the Granlibakken website as described below. Granlibakken is an all-inclusive resort so all registrants’ lodging and meals are part of the meeting structure (the food at Granlibakken is excellent and routinely receives much praise from attendees - although there may be some weight gain). Off campus residents who chose not to eat at the conference center will still be charged an off-campus fee for facilities use and for conference support costs (coffee, projector AV, etc). We encourage all attendees to eat meals at Granlibakken to maximize the social opportunities and networking that occur at mealtimes. Once the on-campus rooms are filled, Granlibakken has arranged for overflow rooms at nearby hotels. Shuttle busses will take attendees back and forth from the conference facility to the local hotels on demand. Book early to ensure a room on-campus.
